DREAMWIDTH FRIENDING MEME

Heyo!

So after a few plurk discussions, the want to start journaling again a la Livejounal came up a few different places, and this idea was born!

We ask if you participate, that you attempt to post 1-3 time a week, and comment as much as possible to help jump start personal journaling here on dreamwidth. And if you use your journal already (or if you start from here) we'd love a link back to this meme! The more the merrier!

You can also follow this community for both daily writing prompts and a monthly friending meme!

To participate, copy and paste this in a comment, fill it out, and go make some friends!

YOU
Name| CapsuleCorp or just Caps
Age| 41 (for two more weeks sob)
Other platforms| Capsulecorp
Fandoms| ONE PIECE. Also sometimes Dynasty Warriors/Koei Warriors in general. I dabble in others but not enough to note.
Interest| Cosplay, roleplaying (DWRP), cats, gardening, fanfic, shitty taste in music...
Speed Bio| I own my own business as a costume commissioner and tailor (full time), I've been around fandom a good eighteen years, sometimes post fic on AO3, transman, 2 cats and a yard that I have to mow.

YOUR JOURNAL
What do you post| mostly cosplay stuff, with occasional commentary about things that mean a lot to me, like nostalgia, days when life is hard, cats, and my yard/garden. Oh yeah and cooking and booze.
Posting habits| I still have the old habit of putting lengthy journal entries behind a cut, so that people can just get a summary of what I'm probably going to ramble about and then skip at will. I also am judicious about friends-locking anything that gets really personal or depressing. Journal RP has kept me in the habit of responding to comments, at least! Holy shit my icons are like 2007-era outdated though, sorry.
Warnings| I use fuck like a comma, and I do sometimes need to talk out my heavier depression bouts. May or may not talk about trans issues.
Looking for| Cosplay friends and One Piece fans, other over-35 fans who want to get together to chase the kids off the lawn.
Deal breakers| there's a reason I don't tumblr. Excessive negativity, call-outs, and harassment won't be tolerated.

Tell us any interesting thing about you! I used to be a radio DJ back in the 90's.
Anything else? I am too drunk to find a gif right now, isn't that terrible?

My icons too! Mind a friend add?

Sounds good to me! Cats and Drag Race are definitely in my range of interests.
